12步打造完美简历(6)

分类: 求职英语 

列出你的工作经历并不仅仅是罗列工作时间和公司名称,还要注意描述你的工作职责,尤其是工作中取得的成就,这是最吸引用人单位眼球的地方。

Step Six: Duties

Under each job, make a list of your duties, incorporating phrases from the job descriptions wherever they apply. You don't have to worry about making great sentences yet or narrowing down your list.

Step Seven: Accomplishments

When you are finished, go back to each job and think about what you might have done above and beyond the call of duty. What did you contribute to each of your jobs?

Did you exceed sales quotas by 150 percent each month?

Did you save the company $100,000 by developing a new procedure?

Did you generate new product publicity in trade press?

Did you control expenses or make work easier?

Did you expand business or attract/retain customers?

Did you improve the company's image or build new relationships?

Did you improve the quality of a product?

Did you solve a problem?

Did you do something that made the company more competitive?

Write down any accomplishments that show potential employers what you have done in the past, which translates into what you might be able to do for them. Quantify whenever possible. Numbers are always impressive. Remember, you are trying to motivate the potential employer to buy . . . you! Convince your reader that you will be able to generate a significant return on their investment in you.
